Here to bring the weird wine aunt vibes ❤ She/they - 30
I have absolutely no idea what I did with any of my headphones so I guess I'm raw dogging my thoughts at work today. I'm sure the existential nightmares of every waking moment won't interfere with my productivity at all.

Lawsuit says its definition of ‘harmful materials’ forbidden to under 18s is ‘vague and overbroad’ and puts librarians at risk

Reasons you should put your pronouns in your bluesky bio 1. The more cis people do it the more it gives cover to trans people 2. Your avatar is a tree or a bird or something? I actually don't know what to call u 3. The Government is trying to make it illegal and that makes it extremely punk rock

Hear me out — If parents call colleges freaked about their FAFSA data being leaked, schools may have to issue statements — which would reach a whole lot more families about how warped this is. Organizing isn’t always calling electeds. Sometimes it’s just calling people with a bigger megaphone.

My cat has randomly decided that the nails in the wall of a room (leftover from a roommate's wall art) that he's lived in for a year and a half are clearly alive and he must get to them. Like this was his home base room before he was fully integrated to the house. 0 thoughts I love him so much.

Trans lives are valid and will be valid every day regardless of how many bullshit documents some dying old fuck signs with his greasy fingers and beshitted pants.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

For anyone wondering, some possible dog names have survived from cuneiform sources. On tiny dog figurines found buried under a palace in Nineveh, Iraq are inscriptions that seem to be names. dan rigiššu “loud is his bark” munaššiku gārîšu “biter of his foe” mušēṣi lemnūti “expeller of evil”

I can't recall a single point in my life where I've been scared of a trans person. Unfortunately, I can think of many, many times that I've been scared FOR trans people.

Good! Progress shouldn't be stopped because of pesky intellectual rights or copyright or little things like that, right? Or does that only apply to you and not the millions of artists, writers, and human beings you trampled over?

Every Western news site the past few days is like "BREAKING: Chinese product bound by Chinese law" as if most of them had any moral standing left after propagandizing the shit out of a genocide for 2 years straight.

Working with Visual Studio is a loop of having issues where your entire solution is screaming that it's on fire and the fix is legitimately "have you tried turning it off and back on again?".

I've never felt the siren call to perform slam poetry shitfaced out of my mind quite like I have in recent days. Coincidentally, I've also never wanted to check out the Wolfenstein game series this much either.

Akram is supporting his mother and five younger siblings, and they're almost three-quarters of the way to their goal. I know we're all spread thin, but many small donations will work wonders where big donations are rarely even possible—please join me in donating to this one now!
